Raymond Santana Sr.

Raymond Santana Sr. was a resident of New York City and the father of Raymond Santana, one of the five boys wrongfully convicted in the 1990 Central Park jogger case. Santana had to struggle with his need to work at his job as well as his need to be a father; he eventually stopped going to his son's trials, as he claimed that he knew what the outcome would be; indeed, the state found the five juveniles guilty despite the evidence in their favor. He later attempted to father his son while he was in prison despite mounting phone bills.
